Wow, great effort by this dude (and ol' Barney) in this Anglo-nations dominated sport.

If Jelle Klaassen would have been American and not a down-to-earth Dutchman, they'd now make a big budget Hollywood production and a EA-game with his picture & name on the box ! :lol:

And he is very very young which seems to go against the trend in this 'athletic' sport.

Heh, well at least it's more athletic than chess and bridge. Try throwing those darts for a matchlength of time...

But I am sure this guy does some mountainbiking or whatever on the side for a 'less limited' workout (plus he has a young nice GF, go figure...) :know:

But he has a piercing in his lower lip... or perhaps a dart bounced back from triple twenties.
Anyway, Holland is tops!
:D

And it compensates a little bit for the All Round EuroChampionships Speedskating in Hamar (Norway), which were chaotic and had no Dutchy on the podium for the first time in 20 or so years.

What happened to the days when professional dart players were at least 100kgs and kept their beer in their left hand while throwing?

Unless of course they throw with their left hand then the schooner/pot/pint of beer should be in the right hand. And don't forget they should also have a fag dangling from their bottom lip with a couple if ciggy burns in their shirt. :-j
